    Actually, see the tent over big man's left shoulder. I am just about 50 yds from there, or at least Scratch was at the time you took this I think. If I had waited at the gate I might have caught you guys going in... Oh well...

    Tori is the official fotograffer for this year's nozzleVision MotoGP foto contest. Nice try Reg, and great comments, but Tori's foto skills contained some thing I can't quite put my finger on that most of your images lacked....

    Maybe one of the good photographer folks can help me understand why.

    thanks for posting them. :)

    Nozzle, I appreciate your praise. Candid shots like these take years of practice, and intense concentration. Even with my years of practice, i still get the random accidental shot. You know the ones..... you forget the camera is still on... and accidentally hit the shutter button. These shots should illistrate better what im talking about.

    Tori,

    dude. I really gotta quit payin less attention to the race... Next year, you can take some pics of me with those hotties. Man, I only saw a couple of the ones you took pics of myself. It was a little different walkin round by myself, though. Oh, Terri says to tell you she noticed all your pics were of chics.:biggrin: Are you workin on a room for next year yet? Terri says she wants to go. We may go up next month for the AMA races... I'm more than likely goin up next year for GP, too, though.

    I think what we can assume from the differing photographic styles is Tori is single(guessing) & has no one to explain to why his camera is full of candid shots:wink: (last time I attempted such a shot I forgot to turn the flash off @ in indoor stunt event, got a bunch of funny looks when the flash went off @ waist level)
    Reg is married & would have to explain if the wife was to for some reason look through the photos( funny how they always seem to do what you least expect @ very inoppurtune moments, its easier just to play it safe):rolleyes: :pout:

    Wish I could have rallied and got up there. I was recovering from a solid week of drinking with friends down in baja. Damn that worm!

    My boss spent the whole day telling me how cool it was. :pout:

    thats wierd that you cant view it. Each time i converted, it lost some quality, but what Photobucket is showing is WOW, terrible.

    Thanks Reg. I'm jealous of those who were able to be there in person and see all the flesh. I'm definately coming down next year. So those from the Pacific Northwest who might be interested in a ride down in 08 let me know and we can start the planning stages.

    No No Reg that lat photo is right after the screw, turns 9 and 10. good job guys. Tori, fwiw that video is better than what fox sports showed. Know what you mean about losing some quality, thats why I went google for hosting video, they seem to be a bit better. IMO

    Not to be nit-picky, but thats not really a good shot of the Cork-screw. Thats the last corner of it. --- Here's the other half....
